Hello Mommy2B and All,
About neutering males and spaying females, I cannot honestly say I am very educated on those subjects. However, I know by word of my vet, that it reduces alot of health risks later on in life. I also understand the over population of dogs, and how neutering and spaying will reduce this or atleast help the situation. However, I personally see nothing wrong with leaving your dog as is, without alteration, if the dog does not have another to mate with. I also see nothing wrong with a pet owner deciding to breed. Everyone has the choice to do with their dogs in the best way they see fit. To me, as long as a dog is healthy, then they are happy (I edited this because I wrote if they are healthy, then they are healthy...
). So Mommy2B, just think about it thoroughly before you make your choice. That is all. Thanks
